Based on the following: core volume of 63,275, shift length of 6.5 hours, and planned HC of 95, how much VTO is needed to reach 110 PPH?

To determine how much Voluntary Time Off (VTO) is needed to reach a productivity goal of 110 units per labor hour, we start by calculating the total production output over the given shift length and the planned headcount (HC).

First, we find out the total available hours for labor by multiplying the shift length by the planned headcount. In this case, a shift length of 6.5 hours and a headcount of 95 provides:

Total Available Hours = Shift Length x Planned HC Total Available Hours = 6.5 hours x 95 = 617.5 hours

Next, we can calculate the total output expected at the target productivity level of 110 PPH (Products Per Hour):

Total Target Output = Total Available Hours x Target PPH Total Target Output = 617.5 hours x 110 PPH = 68,925 units

Currently, the core volume or actual production is 63,275 units. To find out how many units need to be produced through VTO, we calculate the difference between the target output and the current output:

Difference = Total Target Output - Core Volume Difference = 68,925 units - 63,275 units = 5,650 units
